To find the area of a circle, first consider a square…
The area of this square
in terms of r (radius) is…
A= 2r x 2r = 4r2
What about the AREA of a What about the AREA of a circle?circle?2r
2r
Now think about a circle inside the square…
The area of the circle must be less than the area of the square…
A < 4r2
r
Area = ? xr2
Finding a formula for the area of a circle
C = πd or C=2πrSemi - circle=πr
Area of Rectangle= Base x Height
Area = πr x r
Area =πr2
Summary: How to Calculate the Area of the circle
1= Figure out the length of the radius. This
may be as simple as dividing the diameter by 2.
2= Note the formula. The formula for finding
the area of a circle is:
Here I present a short instruction of the practical use of the “Pie" formula. The instructions I wrote here are based on a short problem from our Math’s Workbook.
3= Multiply the radius by itself to square it. 4= Multiply by pie.
>> If the instructions say "leave in terms of pie”, then just stick the pie onto your number.
>> If the instructions say anything about rounding, replace pi with 3.14 or use your calculator's pi button.
Here is an example:
Summary: How to Calculate the Area of the circle
•Occasionally you will see a circle inside of a square. The side length of the square matches the diameter of the circle.
•Occasionally you may see a square inside of a circle. The diagonal of the square is also the diameter of the circle.

is the distance around the outside
The area of a circle is the space inside it
